Abstract

ABSTRACT


Accessing elevated locations safely and efficiently is a common requirement in domestic, commercial, agricultural, and industrial environments. Conventional ladders often face limitations related to portability, storage space, and ease of transportation. This paper presents the design and development of a Manual Movable Foldable Ladder that combines mobility, compact storage, and operational safety in a single system. The ladder is equipped with a foldable mechanism and movable wheel arrangement that enables easy transportation and storage while maintaining structural stability during operation. The proposed design eliminates the need for external power sources and provides a cost-effective solution for height-access applications. The developed ladder demonstrates improved portability, user convenience, and safety compared with traditional ladder systems
